Vehicles owned by the resort are provided to the guests for safaris.. This makes sure that the guests are taken for safaris with lesser crowd and that they get personal attention. This would help guests to have a better chance of game sighting and great flexibility. "Minimum inconvenience and maximum comfort" for our guests is what we strive at.
This side of the park is not frequented as much by tourists and therefore offers a truer glimpse at wildlife and their actions in the wild. The animals are not used to people and some even say that on this side of the park, the animals look healthier. The inn provides several activities including wildlife drives, camping, trekking, a tribal dance, a visit to a coffee plantation as well as a Tibetan monastery and a ride in a coracle, a traditional saucer shaped boat made from bamboo and tanned buffalo hide. Remote, scenic, comfortable and hospitable are the best words to describe Jungle Inn.
We arrange Elephant Safari and sighting at Watch Tower. We would appreciate a weeks notice to arrange for these activities. This is subject to approval by the Wild Life Department.
